1/ ProPublica collected handwritten letters in mid-January from children held at the Dilley Immigration Processing Center, the same facility where 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos was taken. Hundreds of kids are still detained. We’ll let the children’s words speak for themselves. 🧵

"Suspected political message" = in Spanish so the mouth noises scared me

Once again, it turns out “fully autonomous” means “a guy in the Philippines.”

I don't mean to seem alarmed, but it appears Google's book search function is, just...gone. In a sane country it would be a huge deal, front page news, that a privately owned utility that millions researches, from journalists to scholars, rely on every day to advance knowledge can just disappear.

Well this aged well 0.o #aaronsorkin #90smovies #americanpresident #rewatch

Israel bombed tents in Gaza today, killed at least 30 people including children, and the death toll is likely to rise www.theguardian.com/world/2026/j...

It's not quite the most pressing issue at the moment, but the American people absolutely have a right to know the names of the federal officials who shot and killed a man peacefully protesting, who was on his knees, prone in the street when they shot him in the back.

"CBP stays at the border" might sound like a win, but keep in mind that this is what "the border" means to them www.aclumaine.org/know-your-ri...

Perhaps the most politically important thing about Zohran Mamdani is that it seems like he really, really likes New York and New Yorkers.

Would Pretti have been able to scan all 6 officer's fucking QR codes? Would that have saved his life? Why are Democrats so fucking useless?

Hold up- they had pass a legal judgement to tell them... to follow the law?

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

There we go: “It should no longer be possible to say that the Trump administration seeks merely to govern this nation. It seeks to reduce us all to a state of constant fear… That is our new national reality. State terror has arrived.” Gift link:

ICE murdered another man in Minneapolis in cold blood 2hrs ago. Fox is already saying he was armed with intent to attack. Open carry is legal there, he did nothing wrong. This was murder.

Why are they taking so many kids? They did this to Native Americans too, the residential schools. bsky.app/profile/whit...

Tomorrow's front page of the Minnesota Star Tribune: Jan. 24, 2026

Kash Patel said William Kelly has been arrested.

An art teacher at City Garden Montessori was fired last week for this assignment. CGM is an ABAR (anti-bias, anti-racist) public charter school in StL, but apparently draws the line at anti-recent genocide.

In regards to yesterday's dinner being coffee and a whole bag of BBQ cheesy poofs- there are now some regrets. This is what happens when you roll a Nat 1 on your Constitution saving throw. 0.o

This guy went to work today, put a mask on, kidnapped a 5 year old child, and then used him as bait so both he and his father could be sent behind bars

BREAKING: San Francisco Giants star Jung Hoo Lee has been detained by CBP at LAX. Pelosi's office says she is working to secure his release. www.sfchronicle.com/sports/giant...

So nICE of them to label them for us. That's 8 brand-new catalytic converters coming in to StL that won't be leaving in the cars they arrived in.

Of my 1500 calories today, 900 of that was an entire bag of Stubb's BBQ Cheese Curls. #noregerts

"History will not look kindly upon______" Damn history ... i don't look kindly upon it... we aint gotta wait

Why can't a day go by without something dystopian being announced?

We've had the same problem for years, even when both employed full-time. Thanks to the greed of Spire. Our saving grace has been St. Louis- our cold/hot weather law prevents utility shut off during those periods.

We ARE a state and a nation in distress. Be concerned about why this happened and less concerned about what it looks like, StL.

DHS Warns Any Action By Americans Will Be Treated As Domestic Terrorism

Stop celebrating rich people. Social media loves Paris Hilton, but her company still supports fascists. What nuance am I missing?

"The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command." -George Orwell, 1984.

To be shared far and wide. Trigger warning: cold-blooded murder.

St Louis, you're on notice. Guns and fireworks when we could be doing a Toasted Rav drop sponsored by The Hill.

Ive never seen such a brazenly bias headline from Reuters or AP in my lifetime. We truly are in the end times of this colonial experiment.

Time to re-up this one, folks. The words are Hunter S Thompson's from the Dubya administration's war-of-choice on Iraq. The sad part is: I had to do almost no editing beyond changing the dates and the main name to make it sound like it's from today. Same as it ever was. 🤬

Trump says "something is gonna have to be done" about Mexico and President Claudia Sheinbaum in response to a question about whether the Venezuelan strike was a "message" to her government.

People are going to try and lure you into debates about whether Maduro was a good guy or not and the thing is, it doesn’t matter for the purposes of discussing whether violent kidnappings and extrajudicial murders by the US government are ok. No, they aren’t! End of convo.

Not a single person living can recall when the US kidnapped a foreign leader and brought them stateside for "trial". Until today.

He's also responsible for raising all the money that paid for bringing Hollingsworth v. Perry & even more importantly Bostic v. Schaefer, which created the circuit split that forced SCOTUS to take on Obergefell v. Hodges. The role he played in American marriage equality cannot be overstated.

Bret Stephens and the NYT played major roles in manufacturing consent for the Iraq War. Now they appear to be running the same playbook on Venezuela.

2 retiring, 5 not up for re-election. This was not "bravely breaking with the party", this was planned. By Schumer. By the party. They saw the "blue wave" last week and saw their chance, assuming their resurgence was safe for midterms.

TX-18 is a congressional seat left vacant after the death of Sylvester Turner at the age of 70. Before that it was temporarily filled by Erica Lee Carter, following the death of her mother, Sheila Jackson Lee, at the age of 74. It is a majority Black and Hispanic district.

Centrism is the belief that society achieved perfection around the same time as you became a homeowner

@dominos-pizza.bsky.social ? Those Cracker Barrel whiners are gonna take offense to this redesign, I just know it.

"When states are silent civil society can and must speak out ... Silence is not neutral."

This traitor really wants to be President some day. As a Missourian who knows what this smarmy bastard is up to, seeing stuff like this, knowing how disingenuous it is, really grinds my gears.

Things are so mean-spirited right now, this made me tear up. In the gratuitously cruel age of Donald Trump, Ted Cruz, and Mike Johnson, it's comforting to be reminded that there still are decent human beings that walk amongst us. Thank you, Heretic Coffee in Portland.

Waiting for my kid to pick out her costume at Spirit Halloween, and a white Boomer strolls up, smiles, and says "There is no Gaza, its already been freed". Huh?

Uhhh... do people who regularly drink get to own guns? Because if the answer is yes, this shouldn't have gotten as far as SCOTUS.

Rev. Black is a Presbyterian pastor. It’s good to see some mainline Protestants activated. (He is the faith leader who was recently shot in the head with a pepper ball.)
